Website:          Entry for Ind Coope on the Directory of UK Real Ale Breweries              

The Ind Coope brewery was established in Burton Upon Trent in 1856 but the partnership between Edward Ind and C.E. Coope goes back much earlier to a pub in Romford. In 1934 it merged with Samuel Allsopp and then it merged again with Ansells and Tetley Walker to become Allied Breweries.

Remarks: Ian Fleming thought that this glass was a Young's Triple A. This was a barley wine from the 60s or 70s with an ABV of 11% - PHEW! I could still only find references to Young's Triple A being a standard bitter brewed after this time. (Another Link)

However when I then searched for the phrase "Triple A" and "Barley Wine" I found the following link, identifying it as an Ind Coope Brew.
